Cross-party support in House of Lords for international investigation of Sri Lanka atrocities

The Senior Minister of State for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), Baroness Warsi, speaking at the House of Lords, noting recommendations made by the UN Human Rights Chief in a report released last week, reiterated the UK’s commitment towards passing a resolution for an international investigation into crimes in Sri Lanka.

Responding to comments made by Lord Naseby questioning the validity a resolution at the UNHRC, Baroness Warsi, reiterated,

“We have yet to see a meaningful, time-bound, independent, domestic-led political process with clear milestones in this matter.”
